Description
Dan Zanes and Friends New York, New York
Warm up the winter holidays with Grammy Award® winner, former Del Fuego band member and beloved Brooklynite Dan Zanes. When Dan invites his friends over for a jam session, a traditional holiday season song becomes a terrific excuse to tap dance, Arabic beats provide the backdrop for a Lunar New Year sing-a-long, and the stage erupts with disco Hanukah songs and high octane Mexican fiddling. No matter what instrument he plays, be it banjo, cuatro or electric guitar, Dan has a magical knack for making kids and parents smile and sing together. So invite your Jewish uncle Saul, your half-Irish niece Carol and all your friends and family from near and far to make this all-ages holiday celebration a new family tradition!
Musical artists joining Dan in HOLIDAY HOUSE PARTY WITH DAN ZANES AND FRIENDS include Palestinian Arabic-jazz buzuq player Tareq Abboushi, drummer Colin Brooks, English designer and director Julian Crouch, Mexican guitarist and vocalist Sonia de los Santos, accordionist/saxophonist John Foti, renowned tap dancer Derick K. Grant with his tap dancing son and daughter Kaleo and Lulu Grant, bass player Saskia Sunshine Lane, fiddler/trumpeter Elena Moon Park, founder of the ground breaking neo-Hasidic ensemble Pharaoh’s Daughter, vocalist Basya Schechter, Palestinian percussionist/composer Zafer Tawil, and the latest Mariachi sensations from Veracruz, Mexico, the Villa-Lobos Brothers.
